In order to develop a personalized, comprehensive hybrid-BCI approach for lower limb rehabilitation after stroke, we investigate the ability of brain features (event related desynchronization/synchronization - ERD/ERS) and brain-muscle features (cortico-muscular coherence - CMC) to discriminate rest versus foot dorsiflexion in a population of healthy subjects. Different temporal dynamics characterize the two different features, with ERD/ERS performing best in early time windows, allowing feedback delivery contingent with movement onset, and CMC reinforcing correct muscular activation during movement maintenance.
